How Dare You Pretend To Be A Victim! By Idowu Ohioze

Idowu Ohioze I hear you too have taken to the streets draped in flags of solidarity hoping to hide your ills. I see you holding placards pretending to speak truth to power. The same power you misuse against your own kith?! Yes, you who are: the corrupters of your cultures the defilers of your traditions the stealers of your people’s patrimony the traducers of your kind the unpunished killers of your brothers,  the unjailed rapists of your sisters the jailer who is also the accuser and the judge!
